  • Non-destructive method for detecting zones with non conductive materials in a composite part
    Patent number: 7893698
    Abstract: Non-destructive method for detecting zones with non-conductive materials, such as materials that include glass fibers, in a part made of a conductive composite, such as a composite whose reinforcing fibers are carbon fibers, provided with an organic coating, that includes the following stages: a) providing a device for applying an electric potential on the surface of said part; b) determining the dielectric breakdown potential Pr corresponding to the thickness E of the coating; c) applying said dielectric breakdown potential Pr with said device to the part for the purpose of identifying those zones that have non-conductive materials when dielectric breakdown does not occur in them.
